About
*** One Bedroom Top Floor Apartment – Fully Renovated – Stunning Views *** This beautifully presented top floor one bedroom apartment is located on a highly sought after development in Northfield and is ready to move straight into.
Lovingly maintained and exceptionally well cared for by the current owner, this is a home that genuinely stands out from the moment you walk in.
Being positioned on the top floor means no neighbours above, offering a peaceful and quiet living environment, along with impressive elevated views across the surrounding area, particularly striking at night when the skyline lights up.
The property welcomes you with a spacious reception hall, providing access to two built in storage cupboards and a fully boarded loft, ideal for additional storage which is a rare and valuable feature for apartment living.
The open plan living space is bright and modern, seamlessly combining lounge and kitchen areas to create a comfortable yet stylish space to relax or entertain.
The kitchen has been fully renovated and thoughtfully designed, complete with built in oven and hob, integrated fridge and freezer, and washing machine, all included within the sale.
The bathroom has also been refurbished to a high standard, featuring a contemporary suite and modern tiling.
The bedroom enjoys fantastic rear views and continues the theme of a well maintained and immaculate home. For extra peace of mind, a new boiler was recently installed at the end of 2025.
Connectivity is another strong point of this property, with all three major internet providers available including brsk, Virgin and BT lines, making it ideal for remote working or streaming.
The apartment sits within a friendly and welcoming neighbourhood, where residents actively look out for one another and communicate via a dedicated watch group, creating a genuine sense of community and added security.
The development is ideally positioned for local public transport links, providing easy access to surrounding areas, Birmingham city centre and the qe Hospital.
We are advised by the current owner that the property is leasehold and falls within council tax band A.
There are approximately 108 years remaining on the lease, with an annual service charge of approximately £1226 and a yearly ground rent of £308.00.
